Location
Berbérati, Central African Republic
Berbérati Airport (IATA: BBT, ICAO: FEFT) is a small domestic airport serving the city of Berbérati, the capital of Mambéré-Kadéï Prefecture in the southwestern Central African Republic.

Traveller Tips
  • Confirm flight schedules directly with your carrier well in advance, as services are infrequent and subject to change.
  • Carry sufficient local currency (CFA francs) as ATMs and card payment facilities are scarce in the area.
  • Arrive early as security and check-in procedures can be unpredictable at small regional airports.
  • Check travel advisories from your government before visiting the Central African Republic due to ongoing regional security concerns.
